Can we all take a big step back and just ask why the DoD wants to use a fundamentally unreliable technology to guide deadly weapons?

[sowbug]

They don't. They want to punish a company for expressing values that introduce friction to the whims of the current administration.

No, stop, I understand the politics here, but I’m asking about the technical fundamentals.

LLMs produce output of unknowable and unpredictable accuracy, and as far as we know, this is a mathematically unsolvable problem. This shit should not be within 1000 miles of a weapons system. Why are we even talking about this?

The same reason why they used a Signal chat group for discussing matters of national security.
